Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165 Reasonings among others

“Get off me!” Doris snarled. She tried to kick him off but it was like nothing phased him in the slightest. It all only irritated her more than she wanted to admit. Why did he always have to look so unbothered by everything? Would it kill him to show a bit of his feelings beyond the mask that hides it so well? 2

“I don’t want to see you right now! Just-leave me alone!” She shouted to the ceiling. If only Beth was a strong wolf that could rip him apart with her. 2

“You need to hear why I did it, Doris.” William hissed. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)He pinned her wrists above her head and held down her legs with his knee before she could start kicking him again. “I did it for his own good! Daniel needed to be taken somewhere else,, this was the only way!” .

“You tried to kill him for his own good? How does that make sense!” Doris whimpered. She cursed her tears for showing him her weakness. “Daniel didn’t deserve that! He trusted me when I gave him those cookies!”

“They wouldn’t kill him, Doris. I didn’t put enough of a dose to do that.” William said calmly. She wanted to bite him and spit on him at the same time. She willed him to come closer so she could.

“Are you crazy? Why would you do that to him?! Why didn’t you tell me what you were doing?”

“I asked Enzo for medication that would put him in a coma like state. The poison will keep him out for a few weeks, but it won’t kill him.” William explained as if it would all make sense. Doris felt the flame of anger fan brighter.

“Enzo was in on it too?” Doris stilled her thrashing. Now it tasted like betrayal on her tongue . “You two planned this together and used me to set it through?”

William nodded slowly. “Yes. Enzo was the one that suggested it when I said we needed to get him far from here. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)We didn’t intend him any harm, Doris.”

“That’s horribly risky, William! It could have killed him and you know it. He shoved those down within seconds!”

“I knew he would. That’s why I only gave him a few.” William cautiously released her. He looked a bit unsure of his decision and it made Doris want to laugh in a cynical way. “I needed him out of here and safe. I can’t have him him while this war starts. He’s the only innocent one in this family and I wouldn’t have been able to go through with it if I knew there was a chance he would be hurt because of my decisions.” 2

Doris slowly sat up and rubbed her wrists. “You poisoned him to get him out of the way? What if it killed him, William? What if you were wrong and you put too much?”

“I would never have made that mistake. I knew the risks and I wouldn’t have done it unless | was completely sure.” William said. He sounded more like he wanted to convince himself of it   rather than her. “I don’t want him anywhere near the battleground and I know he would have been there whether I wanted him there or not. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)He’s not one to stay on the sidelines when it comes to a fight.”

“Why didn’t you tell me you planned to do this?” Doris asked weakly. “Why didn’t you just give it to him yourself?”

“Because he trusted you more than he trusted me. He might not have eaten them if I gave them to him personally.” William straightened himself. “And I know you would have never agreed to give it to him if I told you.” —

“Well, I don’t think he’ll ever trust me again now.” Doris looked down at her hands. They had so many small cuts across the surface. When had she become so ruined? “I can’t believe you did this. I wish you would have at least told me.”…

“I don’t regret what I did. I am sorry you were involved against your will.”

Doris tried to look him in the eye, but it felt wrong. Daniel was unconscious now and it was partly because of her. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Why did the guilt weigh so heavily on her chest but not on his own? Would he do the same to her if she tried to get in his way?

“I would like to be alone now.” Doris whispered. She watched as William’s feet backed towards the door.

“Yeah, he muttered it under his breath before he left. I thought I was going crazy for a moment.” Beth seated herself next to Doris. “Are you alright?”

Doris realized she hadn’t yet told her best friend about what was to come. Her guilt only grew deeper. “There’s…. Prince William is calling a claim on the crown and challenging Prince Martin for it. He’s calling on his army tomorrow and.. I believe it’ll be the start of a war between the brothers.”
